The Big Pumpkin Is Back In Tolland
It's the Halloween season in Tolland and that means the Big Pumpkin is back.
TOLLAND, CT — The big pumpkin is back in Tolland, just in time for its second Halloween.
At his Route 74 home just below the Tolland Green, resident Chris Farley was putting the finishing touches on the setup Friday afternoon. It will be the second season the large blow-up and light-up pumpkin has been in his yard.
It's 30-feet tall.

Fire Chief John Littell called the pumpkin a focal point of Tolland in the fall. Farley has added some house lights to the display this year.
Farley said he thought of it last year as something to do for the town. Those who want to pose in front of it or just take a photo are welcome to use the cutout on his driveway rather than parking in the plaza across the street and risk crossing the busy part of Route 74.
